Why in the world would a streaming _server_ need access to the audio? If it's streaming, it shouldn't be touching the audio hardware. The _client_ might need something weird (not really, you can play Flash and such without changes), but the _server_? The only thing I can think of is that jukebox mode makes the server actually play the audio on the server through the server's audio hardware and MP3Act behaves as nothing more than a web-based remote control for the server. If that's the case, I think all you'd need is to add the apache user to the "audio" group. As root: # usermod -a -G audio apache then restart Apache. Don't know for sure. SELinux might also get in the way on this. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - Rick Stevens, Systems Engineer, C2 Hosting ricks@xxxxxxxx - - AIM/Skype: therps2 ICQ: 22643734 Yahoo: origrps2 - - - - Perseverance: When you're too damned stubborn to say "I quit!" - ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
